The Return of Respect to the Internet
I’ve been watching, and participating, in forums for about 7 years now. I’ve seen a number of them degenerate into name-calling, trolling, and just general nasty behavior. It seems that left alone the Internet helps foster an atmosphere that is just plain mean. Every closet bully gets the opportunity to hurt others. It’s also a [...]

Saturday, July 12, 2008
Remember back in the old days when a website was a website? I was listening to a pod cast (who knew what that was 5 years ago?) about Internet Marketing strategies this morning. The good news was not only did I understand every single word he said, I thought his material was basic. That’s progress [...]

There are a couple of books that have really changed my thinking recently about the future of business. One is “Meatball Sundae” by Seth Godin. I’m doing a Learning Circle on this over at the First Class Lounge Forum on TaxLoopholes.com. There were literally hundreds of walk-away ah-ha’s that I had from this book. [...]

Thanks to the eagle eye of luckystar on the TaxLoopholes forum (http://www.TaxLoopholes.com), I picked up a 4 letter domain on eBay. We had a little bit of fun trying to figure out what it could actually be used for - it’s DKDB. So Diane Kennedy’s ____ ______ is definitely a possibility. I was surprised to [...]

July is typically a lot like June and August for my CPA business - slow. I’ve done this for a lot of years now and we always experience the summer doldrums. As soon as the kids go back to school, though - look out! It’s flat against the wall until next summer. I used to [...]

Thursday, June 26, 2008
This past week I was approached about a possible joint venture by one of the members of my forum. It was interesting and from what I could see it could be good for my company, but REALLY good for the other company. But, I needed to do some due diligence. That’s when it got a little [...]

Tuesday, June 24, 2008
I’ve been a CPA now for about 25 years. In that time, I’ve seen a lot of different biz opps, investment strategies and out and out scams. One of the things people love or hate is MLMs or IBOs or Direct Selling or whatever it’s called. There is almost a kneejerk reaction to them. But, break [...]

I used to travel a lot. As I built up my database, I would take any speaking gig out there, it didn’t matter where. It was expensive (airfair, hotels, transportation) and the immediate income never covered the costs. In the seminar promoter world, I’ve discovered that there are two main schools of thought when it [...]

Wednesday, June 11, 2008
I have no idea how this is going to play into my “journey to a million dollars in 2 years or less” project, but I think there is some relationship. So, I’m going to hijack my own blog for a week to talk about what I want to do and why, in a much bigger [...]

Friday, May 30, 2008
I began the Journey in April 2008, so it’s technically only been 1 1/2 months for me shooting for the million dollars. But, it’s been 7 months since my business turned on its ear. So, what’s happened since then. (1) I returned to doing tax strategies. This is earned income, but it’s highly leveraged because not [...]
